FINDING THE TRUTH

George Washington Carver became one of the most honored
& respected scientists of his generation by focusing on the very simple
peanut. Eventually he would discover some 300 uses for this most basic &
seemingly insignificant common food. Carver attributed all of his scientific
discoveries to God.

He once said that he had asked God to explain the universe
to him, but that he felt God saying that was too large a task. When he asked
for something he could handle, Carver said that God directed his attention to
the peanut.

His focus & search for value produced amazing results.
Carver never doubted that God was rewarding his faith & effort. He said,
“Without God to draw aside the curtain I would be helpless.”

In a day when many people deny that truth even exists as an
absolute reality, those of us who know God need to be more focused than ever on
seeking for it. Truth is not an abstract concept that varies with time &
place & can never be fully known. Truth is part of the very nature of God.

"It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the
honor of kings is to search out a matter." (Pro 25:2)
